Baggot Street just now. ‘In a Bowl’…as opposed to what exactly? €2 quid cheaper if you lick it off the counter?!
Meanwhile…
In Tesco…
In fairness.

Yeah. Their croissants are around €1.70. I mean, Quoi l’Enfer?
quel enfer,
oui oui j’ai une langue de pute
bodger, these two are using a FOREIGN LANGUAGE to bamboozle you and your delicate sensibilities
ban them both now
ta guelle mon frère…
sacrebleu
c’était dit avec beaucoup d’enthousiasme, mais d’affectation aussi beau gosse ;)
I think you’ll find English is the foreign language on these shores hahahahah

it’s a song from La Cité about getting your kit off, the gigs are great
were great, God I’m old
Ha! The bits i could understand were brilliant.
You are, indeed, terribly old.
Their croissants are quite pedestrian.
Thanks, Goldilocks.
my Baker used to take mine out for me a little before it got too cooked and set it aside because he knew I liked to finish it off in the grill with extra salted butter, ( because I told him before ya jump to conclusions )
I loved that man
That sounds incredible Jan.
Cereal killer of a marketing move.
Hmmm, most people in Ireland can make their own porridge but not their own croissants at home.
I’m doing the bold thing at the mo with a ridiculously ridey French fella. Will ask him will he butter me up with a few of a morning
Do not mention postmen doing things twice! It’ll go badly. Maybe.
Ding! Dong!
fair play ! Get in :)
Extra salted may be a health and safety issue.
Where are you spreading yours ?
Jaysus now it’s a croissant not crisps!
My analogy seems to have been lost in translation.
Oh I just got it…ewwww
excusez moi!
Don’t get the flakey pastry bits everywhere in the sheets!
Wait, what, you mean a business which buys a 1.5kg bag of oats for €2.75, and then opens a cafe, fits it out, employs counter staff, employs someone to make the porridge, buys the bowl, washes the bowl, provides you with seating, light, heat and ambience, insures the place, advertises the place, actually charges €4.95?
Perhaps Broadsheet might instead ask how McDonald’s in Ireland makes €16.95m profit on sales of €88.12m, and what that says about the quality of your euro burger.

hang on, you’re not cian
I like him though.
He’s got pizzazz.
are you saying cian is short on pizzazz?
He’s got pizza.
Cian has dogged pizazz.
cian is a notorious dogger
I thought you were Cian now ;)
no, i’m not cian and he is not me. i have no head for logic,statistics or common sense and if you heard him playing drums you’d flagellate yourself to ease the pain.
If you’ve heard me play drums you know that I flagellate them…
You sooo spelt pizzas wrong, AND he was talking about burgers anyway.

Restaurants make their profits on drinks.
So McDs might be selling their eurisaver burgers at a loss. But when you add a coke and chips they make money.
There you are!
It’s okay everyone, you can relax. And stop ordering pizza.
I’m not cancelling Hawaiian for anyone
You heathen.
Who puts pineapple on pizza? Bleugh.
People who show off their Tupperware on the dart, that’s who. CRAZY FOLK!
you’re just jealose cause it’s got that over the shoulder feature
Your tupperware wears a bra?
Your pizza wears a bra?
My kebab does.
A bra kebab ra.
Ok, that worked better in my head.
Roasted a ham with pineapple the other night and it was delicious. My mind has been changed on the wonders of the Hawaiian pizza.
Any other ingredients ? Did you par boil the ham ? I need deets !
ObRandomFact
Pineapple is the only known source in nature of the enzyme Bromelain. Bromelain actually digest proteins… so when you eat pineapple. It’s essentially eating you back!
#everydayisaschoolday
Pizzazz!
Well I assume the bowl is instead of a plastic pot or carton, plus it’s cooked for you. Most likely slow-cooked.
What’s the problem here? Did the three bears not cook it to your liking?
“Coffee in a cup”…”wine in a glass” “soup with a spoon” etc…
Jelly on a plate

It’s like raaaaain
Ironically, the song might have made more sense back-to-front like that.
Then again, maybe not.
That’s still not ironic.
That’s why I went with the “maybe not” bit at the end, needlenits.
Washing up after porridge has gotta cost at least €1.86 per portion
this
Was Ann Marie MacNally forced to by said porridge? No?
Forced to do what?
Cereal killer of a marketing move.
In next week’s episode Anne-Marie looks at popcorn prices in cinemas
I remember being at a comedy gig where the comedian had dressed up as Paul Durcan. One of his poems was called ” the margins on popcorn in cinemas” it went as follows: Huge.
Not sure what the problem is (outside of the slightly moronic ”in a bowl” tagline).
You think its too expensive, either bring your own (in a tupperware bowl) or have something different.
I think its an age thing though, I work with a lot of people under the age of 30 and the concept of bringing a lunch seems alien to them, preferring to shell out a fiver on some reconstituted chicken waste (a ‘hot chicken roll’) from some dodgy garage or McDonalds etc.
I bring stuff like chili, bean cassoulet or the odd sandwich roll and have access to a full kitchen so handy enough for me. Its not so much the cost as the quality. Stuff sold in the ‘deli’ counters in the likes of Spar, Centra or the service stations just isn’t what I consider suitable for daily consumption.
you’re dead right, I got a brilliant 3 Tupperware hold all with separate cold section I like to show off on the dart #lunchboxenvy
You’d rather forage for your porridge?
Nigel For-aaage?
Breakfastit.
It’s the 4.95 that gets me, why can’t they just say a fiver?
Seriously? Its because 4.95 sounds cheaper than 5.00.
Possibly because it is…..but its the perception, nobody pays 4.99 or 9.99 for anything these days as they round up, but people more likely to pay 9.99 than 10.00
Either those strawberries are ginormous, or that is one measly bowl of porridge.
A healthy serving of porridge oats before adding liquid and cooking is 40g or about 400 calories if you use milk. Which is not an awful lot for the average common or garden Irish chubster….
I doubt many chubsters are tucking into porridge in the mornings.
Unless they liberally chuck Lucky Stars on top of it…
big problem is skipping breakfast and then eating a feed of carbs before bed, eye witness acc.
You’d get 4 miles out of it at a good clip
